100 Top Companies with Remote Jobs in 2016

We are excited to announce the release of our third annual list of the 100 top companies to watch for remote jobs in the year ahead! These companies, having posted the most work-from-home jobs in 2015, are at the forefront of telecommuting and remote workforces.

Each year, we compile a list of the 100 companies that posted the most work-from-home jobs (a.k.a. remote, telecommuting, virtual jobs) over the last year. Based on an analysis of the over 40,000 companies in the FlexJobs database, we’ve found the 100 companies with the most remote job postings in 2015. The companies below posted the most telecommute-friendly jobs from January 1 – December 31, 2015. Telecommute-friendly refers to listings that offer some level of telecommuting (the levels on our site are 100 percent, mostly, some, or optional telecommuting). Job seekers, if you’re interested in finding a remote job this year, it’s a good bet that these will be some of the top companies with remote jobs in 2016.

Big Increase in Remote Jobs in 2015

As part of our analysis of telecommuting jobs listed on FlexJobs in 2015, we looked at the rise in remote jobs over the last several years. Telecommuting job listings increased a solid 36 percent from 2014 to 2015, compared to a 26 percent increase from 2013 to 2014.

It appears that not only is remote working on the rise, but opportunities to work from home are increasing at a faster rate. This acceleration is fantastic news for anyone wishing to leave the office for a telecommuting job.

Ultimately, FlexJobs can save you time, energy, and frustration – and hopefully help you find a job faster!
